Synopsis
Season 2 of the Bangarang Project was one of ups, downs, and ultimate success. The off-season was a time of intense literature review, frantic scientific preparation, major vessel improvements and landmark fundraising success. The field season was nearly lost due to the failure of a rebuilt engine, a debacle that has escalated to a lawsuit that remains unresolved. Despite this setback, the Bangarang finished the season stronger than ever: a brand new engine smoothly broken in, an arsenal of world-class scientific instrumentation vetted and sea-trialed, and a month of fieldwork of unqualified success. I now enter the off-season with more drive, enthusiasm and determination than ever.
